Happy Book Birthday to Tanya Lloyd Kyi whose YA novel PRINCE OF POT is just out with Groundwood Books! Isaac loves art class, drives an old pickup, argues with his father and hangs out with his best buddy, Hazel. But his life is anything but normal. His parents operate an illegal marijuana grow-op, Hazel is a bear that guards the property, and his family’s livelihood is a deep secret. PRINCE OF POT is Romeo and Juliet, grow-up edition, and Booklist has said that “This truly immersive story…perfectly captures the classic warring emotions of late adolescence.”
